Tomb Raider 1-3 Remastered dev talks controls, photo mode and more as new details revealed

We’ve not heard much about Tomb Raider 1-3 Remastered since its unveiling back in September last year, but now developer Aspyr has emerged to share further details about what players can expect – including control toggles and a photo mode – when Lara Croft’s spruced-up early adventures come to PlayStation, Xbox, Switch and PC, on 14th February.
